Photoshop could achieve this pic. I suppose witnessing this disturbance of nature in the flesh may have seemed impressive at the time, but what extreme insensitivity to the current world climate + concern at the environmental abuse of basically dumping toxins in a prestine environment. If I found an endangered snow leopard and killed it and posted a pic, would that be art? No. I'd just be something that rhymes with 'Anchor'. And that is what this guy essentially is. W-----.

And really conscious work provokes consiousness. I think art is grace and it needs to be as rich a deifnition and interpretation as we inwardly demand from corporations, health care workers...and ourselves. That is not art...I saw someone scatter animal bones and call it art. If they were the bones of someone's you knew and cared about, it would not be art. There are more important things to think about...if art provokes thought, maybe people should consider what thought's need provoking. There are so many! I mean this caringly.
